    Just found you and subscribed part way through. I like your approach to knitting (matches my own). Your wools are beautiful and full of life. I’m an experienced knitter and familiar with how wools are processed but totally enjoyed the tour of your Little Mill. And I love the name: The Little Mill Over the Hill - very Tolkien-ish. The clips you added at the end were great including Red watching the T.V. vet show. Good shot of the stars too. From Thunder Bay, Canada.

    Oh, my goodness, what fun to tour your wonderful mill. I am relatively new to knitting, but I have such respect for those who are able to work those wonderful fibers into such beauty. I’ve watched your podcasts from the start, and you’ve done so much with your mill in what seems to me to be a short amount of time. I look forward to seeing more of your knitting and spinning and milling life.

    Your yarn looks dreamy, I’d gladly purchase some if you’d like to try shipping some to the states! Shed made sounds like the perfect mash-up of handmade/artisanal/small batch/bespoke. I want to try the Halibut, but worry about the armscye pouch issue - how’ve you found it? Thanks for the inspiration and lesson in breed specifics, always thrilled to see a new video from you!

I love the Aran weight yarn because I love knitting with that weight of yarn. Now I been asked to knit cabled caps in aran but worried that the people who asked me to do so won't pay. I only use good yarn plus my labour so it won't be cheap. Now finish the garment you need to steek. The Shed what a good name I wish I lived near you because you are so interesting ❤😊❤

Ha, ha winter couldn’t wait until you finished the nutiden jacket. Well done with your socks. I’m knitting the Osros sweater and the instructions actually calls for long floats of at least 5sts to avoid a dense fabric.
